Very comfortable, although I could use a bit more volume in my boobs in order to smooth out the cup shape.

I love this bra! I had a 32FF - Freya ยป Erin Padded Half Cup (4133) that has the same cut as this bra and loved it, so I'm happy to find this one in my size! It's great for all day wear and I love how soft the straps are. The only thing I don't like is that the cup is two layers, so sometimes the inner layer bunches up, which shows through shirts. Otherwise, this is a great daily bra.

I fell in love with this bra when I first saw it, but unfortunately they didn't have it in my size (30GG). Thankfully, the place I got it from does alterations and they took a 32G and shortened the band for me. After wearing it for a while the band started to stretch out and just got to loose to wear. Also, I grew a little as well and my boobs got too big for the cups and caused me to get the awful quadboob effect whenever I wore it.

This. this is currently my best fitting bra.
I have it in a 30F, I think the cups run a tiiiiiny small, I'm kind of on a line, & it is actually perfect. The band is firm, I'm a big 30 band/small 32 & it is firm and stable and not going anywhere but I can breathe & take it off without any marks.
The padding is subtle (which is good or I'd hate it) & the design is cute but not "drown you in lace & bows" cute. The straps might be a little wide on narrower folks but for me they're pretty good & the straps themselves are wide enough to distribute the 10% they do take. And the shape it gives is nice without being HEY HEY LOOK AT US WE'RE BOOBS. Which is good?Updated on Jun 19, 2014 Flag this

This bra doesn't have enough immediate projection for me, so there isn't enough space at the bottom of the cups to provide much lift. I've found that in similar Freya styles, the wires of 28G's/30FF's track perfectly with my boobs, but I get severe quadboob in them, while sizing up to 30G's make the wires too wide. I'll have to give up on Freya padded halfcups, sadly. Also the band is too loose, but I know I would have gotten a 28 if I had bought it originally (I bought it NWT from someone else). I love the styling and the pattern, so I just wish it were compatible with my shape.

Got it in "demin" color. Its comfortable. The cups are more lined than padded, and the outer fabric is silky feeling and soft. The straps adjust nicely. All in all, I'm a fan.

This is maybe the most comfortable bra ever. It's the first bra I've ever tried that is "lightly lined" which basically means it's padded but not molded. I would love it if it weren't so ugly. I really hate the colors and plaid is not my thing. I got it for a really good deal though, so I'll probably keep it. Luckily, it has several sister cuts and I like the way they look.

I have this bra in 36FF but had a little bit of quad-boob on my bigger breast. Decided to size up to a G just to get an idea of how it would fit, as I am still figuring out my sizing.
Pros - Totally tartan is very comfortable! I find this to be more comfortable than the Patsy or the Lauren (both Freya's). Nothing lacy or uncomfortable poking me in my underarm pudge.
Cons - For some reason the cup is very wrinkly. I think this is just because the cups are too big for me. The FF definitely fits better, even though I have a bit of quadboob.
I have not worn this for an extended period of time yet, because of the wrinkles, but I imagine that it will be comparable in comfort to my 36FF (which I find very comfortable!)This bra is not owned any more

Pros: Great bra, very comfy, band fits similar to other Freyas.
Cons: I have some quad-boobing but also a slight wrinkle on my larger breast. This may just be due to the fabric on the cup, because I also have this bra in a 36G and I noticed wrinkling on this one too. Bra digs in a teeny bit on my underarm pudge but I like the way the bra makes my boobs look enough to keep it.

As with other padded half cups by Freya I have tried, they really are too wide and shallow for me. I just keep buying them and crossing my fingers because I keep finding good deals on them. I have the Secret Garden padded half cup (in the same size), which is supposed to be the same cut as this. It doesn't fit quite the same though. I feel as though the cup is more malleable with this one and may allow me more room in the bottom, but I can't wear it as for some reason the top of the cups gape like crazy. I was getting a little bit of gaping in the Secret Garden but this actually shows through shirts.
Honestly, if you have the breast shape to go with these bras, they are wonderful. I'm really just living in denial.This bra is not owned any more
